Project Description

In this service design project, students will collaborate with Nivos to co-create ways to improve employee engagement and internal work culture. The goal is to strengthen collaboration, clarify roles, and support a future-ready workplace—while preserving the company’s existing strengths, such as openness and expertise.

The course requires effort and active, intensive teamwork through the whole project part. Please make sure you have reserved full study days for this course. During project phase we do not accept any absence. PRESENCE and active role in project work is MANDATORY. If you want to reserve a spot in project part you have to be present during project kick-off and take active role in every meeting.

This is an online implementation consisting of two separate parts. The first Theory section 1 is a prerequisite for the second Project section 2.

The Theory section 1 (online) Theory needs to be completed before taking the Project section.

Theory Part 1 (online) runs through 18.8 - 30.9 and needs to be completed before participating in the Project Part 2. Theory part is done online individually and you can study the contents at your own pace. However, it is recommended to proceed according to the course schedule in order to make sure you will finalize this part of the study unit by 30.9
